Ibraniyawa 3
1 Bara nani nuwana nilau, anan munu nati nanya nyicillu kitene, yenen Yisa ku, unan kadura nin pirist ule na tiba diu nghe kutyin.
Therefore, holy brethren, sharers with others in a heavenly invitation, fix your thoughts on Jesus, the Apostle and High Priest whose followers we profess to be.
2 A wandi nin kirki, kiti Kutelle, ulenge na awa ferenghe, Musa wandi nin kirki kilari Kutelle vat,
How faithful He was to Him who appointed Him, just as Moses also was faithful in all God's house!
3 bara iwa yene Yisa katin Musa ku nin ngongon, bara ulengye na ke kilari, akatin kilaree litime.
For Jesus has been counted worthy of greater glory than Moses, in so far as he who has built a house has higher honour than the house itself.
4 Ko kiyeme kilari unitari na ke kinin, vat ulengye na ana ke imon Kutelle ari.
For every house has had a builder, and the builder of all things is God.
5 Musa fa wadinin kirki nafo kucin kilari Kutelle, vat, a niza uluru umang nimon ulle na iba bellu nin du nbun.
Moreover, Moses was faithful in all God's house as a servant in delivering the message given him to speak;
6 Bara Kristi ari udina wari kilari Kutelle, assa timono nin likara uciu kibinayi nin nfo figiri bite kitime.
but Christ was faithful as a Son having authority over God's house, and we are that house, if we hold firm to the End the boldness and the hope which we boast of as ours.
7 Bara nani, una so nafo na uruhu ulau na bellin “kitimone asa ulanza liwui me,
For this reason--as the Holy Spirit warns us, "To-day, if you hear His voice,
8 na uwa ti gbas nin nibinayi mine ba, nafo na an Isiraila nanyan kugbas mine, kubi na iwa dumun nani nanya kusho”.
do not harden your hearts as your forefathers did in the time of the provocation on the day of the temptation in the Desert,
9 Nanere wandi, kubi na ankah mine wa dumuni kubi na kus akut anas, iwa yene adadu ni nghe,
where your forefathers so sorely tried My patience and saw all that I did during forty years.
10 Bara nani na nwa lanza nmang kuji kone ba, 'nmini wa bellin, ko kome kubi idin lasuzunu nanya ibinai mine, na inug yiru tibau nighe ba.
Therefore I was greatly grieved with that generation, and I said, 'They are ever going astray in heart, and have not learnt to know My paths.'
11 Udi nafo na nwansu isilin nanya tinana nayi nighe, na iba piru nanya nshinu nighe ba”.
As I swore in My anger, they shall not be admitted to My rest" --
12 Sun seng, linuana, bara iwa lawa nin nayi ananzang an salin yinnu nanya mine, kibinayi ka naki ba kpilliu minu kiti Kuttele nlai.
see to it, brethren, that there is never in any one of you--as perhaps there may be--a sinful and unbelieving heart, manifesting itself in revolt from the ever-living God.
13 Nin nani tan atimine agang nibinayi ko lome liri, nin ndandaunu nafo na idin yicu kitimone, bara na warum mine was yita gbas bara karusuzo kulapi.
On the contrary encourage one another, day after day, so long as To-day lasts, so that not one of you may be hardened through the deceitful character of sin.
14 Bara arike tiso anan munu nati in Kristi, tiwa min uciu nibinayi bite gangang. kiti me unuzun nburne udu imalline.
For we have, all alike, become sharers with Christ, if we really hold our first confidence firm to the End;
15 Kitene nilele, ina bellin, “kitimone, assa ulatisa liwui me yenje uwati kugbas nin kibinayi fe, nafo na an Isirala was nanya kugbullu”.
seeing that the warning still comes to us, "To-day, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts as your forefathers did in the time of the provocation."
16 Ame ghari ule na awa latiza Kutelle asu Kugbullu? na inughere alenge na Musa wa nutun nani nanya Masare?
For who were they that heard, and yet provoked God? Was it not the whole of the people who had come out of Egypt under the leadership of Moses?
17 Nin naya ghari Kutelle wa nana ayi udu akus akut anase? Na nin nalelere na iwa su alapi, inughe na abi mine wa nnon nanya kushoe?
And with whom was God so greatly grieved for forty years? Was it not with those who had sinned, and whose dead bodies fell in the Desert?
18 Udu kiti naya ghari Kutelle wa sillo, na inghe ba piru nanya nnshinu me ba, andi na alenge na isalin ndortu nghe ba?
And to whom did He swear that they should not be admitted to His rest, if it was not to those who were disobedient?
19 Tina yene nworu na iwase upiru nanya nshinu me bara usalin nyinnu mine.
And so we see that it was owing to lack of faith that they could not be admitted.
